A month ago, I got an email from Angel, the magazine Editor, asking for permission to do a reprint of my recipes. I was stunned! You know that feeling, don't you? When you're minding your own business and having fun (blogging) ... and someone actually likes what you're doing? Crazy but true.
They used 2 recipes from my blog:
Teochew Yam Paste (recipe here). I have done my Teochew ancestors proud. LOL!
Watermelon Granita With Ginger Syrup (recipe here).
Well, I never! My pics are actually magazine-worthy! ;) How cool is that?! Certainly made my day. :)
And you know, the funniest bit was my daughter looking through my food photos and saying in her solemnest voice, "Imagine, WE were the ones who ate all that." LOL!!! She is so funny!
